Revolution counter
The rev counter indicates the number of en-
gine re
volutions per minute.
Together with the gear-change indicator,
the rev counter offers you the possibility of
using the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed.
The beginning of the red zone of the rev
counter indicates the maximum speed in any
gear after running-in and with the engine
hot. However, it is advisable to move the se-
lector lever to D or lift your foot off the ac-
celerator before the needle reaches the red
zone

.
W
e r
ecommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. Consult the addition-
al information in
›››
page 239, Selecting the
optimal gear.
CAUTION
●
To prevent damage to the engine, the rev
counter needle should only remain in the
red zone for a short period of time.
●
When the engine is cold, avoid high revs
and heavy acceleration and do not make
the engine work hard.
For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to
